When Would You Like to Start?

New classes start every September, January, and May, providing you the flexibility to start on your own timeline. Our accelerated curriculum* allows you to earn your DVM and become a licensed veterinarian in three years and four months.

January 2018

Starting in January has both the benefit of an extra semester at home, plus students who begin at Ross in January 2018 will complete their DVM at the same time as students who begin in September 2017 at a US school*.

Apply now through our simple online application—just make sure to have your 300-word essay prepared, and note that you can submit your application before submitting your supplemental materials, in order to get your file started.

If you’re planning on using the VMCAS, Ross is currently accepting VMCAS applications for the January 2018-September 2018 semesters. Alternatively, if you've already completed your VMCAS application, but did not apply to Ross, you can submit the PDF of your completed application by email. Be sure to include your contact information and the semester for which you are applying.

Applicants who apply through VMCAS do not need to pay an additional application fee, or write an additional personal essay. You’ll still need to submit your GRE score report and any other supplemental documents, which can be done before or after you submit your VMCAS. We will retrieve transcripts and letters of recommendation from VMCAS directly.

The May class is usually a smaller size than our other two semesters, so students who start in may often benefit from more time with instructors in an environment that already puts emphasis on small-group instruction. Plus, starting in May 2018 allows you to finish an entire year earlier than starting September 2018 at a US School*.
